Dynamite acquries Dabel Brothers titles

Dabel Brothers - known for their comic adaptations of sci-fi and fantasy novels and movie properties - have entered into an agreement to transfer all of their titles to Dynamite.

Les and Ernst Dabel's company's first adaptation was a popular comic based on George R R Martin's The Hedge Knight, which debuted in 2003.

"Things have been moving fast, and it's all come to a head in the last week or so," Dynamite publisher and president Nick Barrucci told CBR. "We're integrating the titles into our production schedule now.

"The Dabel Brothers helped bring new readers to comics. We want to help built on that accomplishment."

Dabel Brothers have previously enjoyed successful partnerships with Marvel, Image and Devil's Due Publishing, though these partnerships have tended to end abruptly.

The first of these transferred titles will begin shipping in April 2010.
